However, I don't think it will be long until everything will be connected to the internet, so I don't see that being a major hold back. I think the main hold back will be the fact that QR has already established itself in some parts of the globe, QR readers come as standard on phones from Japan and South Korea, and now new Nokia phones sold in the US and Europe, Microsoft will have to establish tag at another level.

Since the MS reader isn't really a reader and the MS Tag doesn't contain any information, then it no longer works without an internet connection, eliminating the segment of the market that doesn't require a connection. But then agian what we all need is more advertising. Improve, you say?
